Who is it for?
For Women contains friendly bacteria strains especially found in the vaginal & urinary tracts, scientifically proven to reach the intimate area, and to complement the vaginal flora. It is suitable for women of all ages and is backed by over 30 years of research.
What are live cultures for women?
Most friendly bacteria supplements are suitable for all genders. However, several strains, such as Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14®* and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1®*, and Lactobacillus paracasei F-19®, survive to reach the vaginal flora and prefer to colonise there. They are regarded as specific vaginal live cultures and can be found in the Optibac Probiotics For Women supplement.
How do I choose the best friendly bacteria for women?
The best women’s live cultures supplements contain friendly bacteria specifically researched in women, with the same billions count used in supporting research studies. Optibac Probiotics For Women strains were used in gold standard clinical trials at the same strength of 2.5 billion live cultures per capsule daily.
Will vaginal live cultures help my digestion?
The live cultures in Optibac For Women prefer to live in the vaginal flora, but other friendly bacteria strains prefer to live in the gut. This is why many people choose to take a digestive supplement, such as Optibac Every Day, alongside their vaginal live cultures so that they have all-round support for their gut and vaginal flora.

Wonderful for Women
I was really pleased when I discovered this product which is very strong, made in the UK and a reasonable price. Works very well too. (I was using a different product previously, that had the same active ingredients, but as it came from USA it was quite expensive. )
